Chapter 8, Xianwumen
After being baptized by the war, Xilan Village not only did not become desolate, but became even more lively. Nanyu, Xituo, Beiling and Dongxuan Village sent troops to lurk in the village. Although it was on the surface to maintain balance and peace, it was actually just to investigate the whereabouts of the Demon Refining Tower and the Immortal Devouring Heavenly Book. I don’t know how many masters of good and evil are hiding in it. The once peaceful Xilan Village has become a place where dragons and tigers are hidden.
"Pray for the gods in the sky to bless Brother Zhu with peace and safety..." Ling'er prayed by the cliff. Her master Nanhuang Old Man looked at her silently behind her back and sighed helplessly, "This girl". Nanhuang Old Man was going to take Ling'er away from this place of right and wrong, but Ling'er firmly believes that Zhu Yuanlong will come back here to find her, and firmly believes that Zhu Yuanlong is still alive.
There were people coming and going in Xilan Village. Some people started business, including selling knives and swords, opening teahouses and restaurants, selling jewelry, medicinal materials, rouge clothing, etc., which was very lively. From the once unknown Xilan Village, it suddenly became the four-country exchange center.
Zhu Yuanlong erected a monument for Xie Wudao at the bottom of the cliff, "The Tomb of the Master Xie Wudao". After farewell, Zhu Yuanlong followed the tunnel opened by Xie Wudao and left the bottom of the cliff. At the entrance of the cave, Zhu Yuanlong used piles of stones and used trees to cover it up.
"Old man, I will come back to see you often when I have time. I have promised you that I will practice Beiming Xuanbing Art well and fulfill your wish. One day I will step into the fairy world." Zhu Yuanlong kowtowed nine times to the entrance of the cave and left.
Zhu Yuanlong walked aimlessly on the street, not knowing where to go, and walked by the lake with his feelings, unknowingly came to the lake. Although Zhu Yuanlong still had no memory of what had happened, he always felt that he had been here, and he felt that he had been here, and he had an inexplicable familiarity and intimacy. Zhu Yuanlong took off his clothes, pierced into the lake, took a shower from head to toe, changed into a new set of clothes, and showed a handsome, upright, heroic man in front of him.
Zhu Yuanlong lay comfortably on the stone by the lake, and started a fire. He leaned against the fish caught from the lake, and the fragrance filled the air. He had not eaten for two days and killed a fish that was two or three pounds large. Although it was not as delicious as the strange fish in Nether Lake, he could have such grilled fish without eating for two days. It felt that any delicious food was incomparable to any delicious food. He opened the package and saw that the Demon Refining Tower and the Demon Devouring Heavenly Book were still lying quietly in the package. Seeing that there was no one around, he was curious again to pick up the Demon Devouring Heavenly Book to see what it was. Since it had such magic power, people, gods and demons in the world fought for it. But after opening it, it was still blank. The Demon Refining Tower was still nothing special. He put the tower and the book back in the bag with a little disappointment.
"The sky is big, the earth is big, and the sleeping is the biggest." Zhu Yuanlong, who was tired, found a secret place to prepare to sleep. He just lay down, suddenly saw a figure falling from the sky not far away. Zhu Yuanlong secretly poked his head out and found someone lying in the grass, as if he was seriously injured. Zhu Yuanlong walked over carefully. A white-haired Taoist priest was wearing a silver Taoist robe with a pale face, and the Taoist robe and chest were covered with blood.
"Master, what's wrong with you?Master," Zhu Yuanlong helped the Taoist priest up. The Taoist priest woke up slowly. He felt like he pushed Zhu Yuanlong away and touched his arms. Maybe he found that the thing was still there, and he felt a little embarrassed and said on his face: "I'm sorry, little brother, I think you are someone sent by Xie Zundao."
"It's okay, then I won't disturb you..." Zhu Yuanlong said. He didn't want to cause trouble. In this inexplicable world, there are too many perverted things. People can fly to the sky and escape, and can live for thousands of years.
The Taoist priest sat in a stake, his eyes closed slightly, his palms were combined to regulate his breathing. A quarter of an hour later, the old Taoist priest's face returned to a little bloody color, "Can you do me a favor?" The old Taoist priest saw that Zhu Yuanlong was not like a treacherous person.
"I wonder what I can do for the Taoist priest?" Zhu Yuanlong responded. The old Taoist priest took out a package-like thing from his arms, "Can you help me deliver this package to the Tianxuan Zhenren of Xianwumen?" This stumped Zhu Yuanlong. He had not even figured out where he hadn't figured it out yet, let alone where Tianyun Mountain was.
"Let's do this, Taoist priest, I will help you walk with you. I don't know where Tianyun Mountain is. If you are robbed by others, it will be difficult to explain." Zhu Yuanlong told the truth.
"Little brother, I am seriously injured. The evil man is catching up quickly. You can take this package and leave quickly." The Taoist priest said anxiously.
"This..." Zhu Yuanlong could not find any reason to reject the Taoist priest in front of him, so he had to take the package from the Taoist priest and wanted to say something, but the old Taoist priest spoke first, "Little brother, you keep going southeast, and these two hundred miles away is at the foot of Tianyun Mountain. If you go there, you say that Taoist priest Xuanyu asked you to come, and they will naturally take you to see Tianxuan Zhenren. Go away quickly, the demon will arrive." After the old Taoist priest said it, he started to be lucky, and Zhu Yuanlong couldn't even get in the mouth.
Without going far, I heard the sound of fighting behind me. The old Taoist priest and a few masked men in black were fighting together. The sword light and sword shadow could not tell which one was. Zhu Yuanlong sighed in his heart: "What kind of messy society is this? Killing and setting fires are displayed so vividly."
Half an hour later, the calm returned to his mind. Several men in black seemed to be searching for something. Zhu Yuanlong couldn't help but touch the package in his arms. The man in black found nothing and quickly left the scene. After seeing the man in black walking away, Zhu Yuanlong secretly returned to the Taoist priest. He saw that the Taoist priest had died. He had a sword pierced the heart, and the blood flowing out of his chest condensed into a piece and gradually turned dark red. Zhu Yuanlong buried the old Taoist priest grass and walked towards the southeast.
After a few days of running around, I finally arrived at the foot of Tianyun Mountain. Looking at the peaks of the sky, white clouds swirled from the middle of the mountain. At the entrance of the mountain, there was a magnificent archway with the three big words "Xianwumen" written on it. It was vigorous and powerful, like a giant dragon plate. Just as I was about to enter the mountain, I suddenly didn't know where two Taoist priests wearing swords and gray robes came out behind me. "Who dares to trespass on the Xianwumen?"
"Below..." After falling to the cliff, Zhu Yuanlong forgot all the past and even his name was forgotten. The two Taoists thought that Zhu Yuanlong was unwilling to claim his name, so they immediately drew out their swords and pointed them at Zhu Yuanlong.
"No, don't, I want to see Zhenren Tianxuan in the lower Jun Mowen." In the emergency, Zhu Yuanlong casually gave himself the name "Jun Mowen". The two Taoists looked at each other and seemed to have never heard of this name in the world. The sword in his hand was not put down, "What do you think of Zhenren Tianxuan?"
"I want to see you, not seeking to see you." Zhu Yuanlong was unhappy. When the Taoist priest said that Tianxuan Zhenren, he remembered that Xie Wudao at the bottom of the cliff had said that Xuanzhen old thing, so he had no good feelings for Tianxuan Zhenren Zhu Yuanlong. He was only entrusted by others and wanted to meet that Tianxuan Zhenren, Tianxuan false man.
The two Taoist priests looked at Zhu Yuanlong, not knowing who Zhu Yuanlong was from, and spoke so arrogantly. I don’t know whether to let go or stop him. “Who dares to act wildly in the Immortal Wumen”. Before he saw him, he heard the voice first. A young Taoist priest from green robe came with a sword, with a few pride on his face. Zhu Yuanlong was angry when he heard it, “Since you don’t welcome it, forget it, I don’t care. Master Xuanyu, I can’t help it.” When the Taoist priest in green robe heard Master Xuanyu, “Brother, I don’t know what happened to Master Xuanyu just said?”
"Sorry, I only told Tianxuan Zhenren about everything. I'm sorry, I have no obligation to inform you." Zhu Yuanlong deliberately said the idle people very seriously.
This made the green-robed Taoist priest so angry that his face turned purple. The green-robed Taoist priest winked at the two gray-robed Taoist priests, and the two gray-robed Taoist priests immediately flashed back to both sides and let Zhu Yuanlong pass.
"Since there is something important, then I will go up the mountain with my sword." The green-robed Taoist priest stepped onto the sword and prepared to go up the mountain.
"Sorry, I'm dizzy in my sword," said Zhu Yuanlong.
"Damn the sword..." The Taoist priest in green robe almost fell down when he sent the sword.
At this time, another sound came from his ears, crisp and beautiful, "Senior Brother Song, what are you doing?" In a blink of an eye, a girl as beautiful as a fairy fell from the sky. She looked like a thirteen or fourteen years old, with a white flowing robe and gauze dress, and her black hair was gently pulled up on her head like a flowing shiny black ink. Her eyes were round and black, and her long eyelashes were like fog, which made her eyebrows and eyes extremely moist. Her pointed face and skin were like soft snow. She was like a young and noble princess.
"Senior Brother Song is..."
"This young hero is coming to see the head, it seems to be a matter of Uncle Xuanyu," said the Taoist priest in green robe.
"What's wrong with Master Xuanyu?" the girl asked the Taoist priest in green robe.
"I don't know either..." The Taoist priest in green robe looked at Zhu Yuanlong.
"What's wrong with Master Xuanyu?" The girl looked at Zhu Yuanlong with a few eagerness and care in her eyes.
"Zhen Yu Zhenren was killed. There are some things that I want to see Tianxuan Zhenren to be easier to say." Seeing the beauty, Zhu Yuanlong's tone became a little softer.
"Would you like to go to see Master Xuanzhen with me?"
"I can't fly a sword." Zhu Yuanlong felt a little embarrassed
"I'll take you up..." The girl couldn't care about so much. The Taoist priest in the green robe wanted to say something, but before she could say it, the girl asked Zhu Yuanlong to stand behind her, holding her shoulders with both hands, and the sword rose in the air and went straight to the green cloud. Zhu Yuanlongzhi heard the sound of the wind in his ears, and the girl emitted a faint fragrance, and in a blink of an eye it reached the top of the mountain.
Zhu Yuanlong stepped into the door, holding his breath at the same time, looking at everything in front of him in disbelief.
This is the legendary fairyland.
A huge square, with the ground paved with white marble, shining brightly, and at first glance, it makes people feel a small heart. The white clouds in the distance are like veils, floating under their feet. In the center of the square, a huge copper tripod is placed in three rows, three in each row, with a total of nine, arranged in a regular manner. From time to time, light smoke floats up in the tripod, and its taste is clear but not dissipated.
"Going here." As if Zhu Yuanlong's thoughts, the girl showed a smile on her face and continued to walk forward.
"This is the 'Sea of Clouds' among the Six Scenerys of Tianyun," the girl walked.
Zhu Yuanlong couldn't help asking, "What is that?"
The girl pointed to the other side of the bridge. Looking into the distance, she saw something shining in the distance, at the end of the square, behind the foggy clouds, and they accelerated their pace and walked forward.
Gradually, the sound of water came, and there were a few strange sounds like thunder in between, and I don’t know where it came from.
They got closer and closer, and the clouds were like gentle fairies, gently surrounding them, gradually unraveling the vague veil and revealing their clear faces.
At the end of the square, there is a stone bridge with no seat or piers, rising from the sky, one end on the square, extending straight upward, entering the depths of the white clouds, like a dragon leaping through the sky, with a lofty aura. There is a faint sound of water coming, and under the sunlight, the entire bridge scatters colorful colors, like a rainbow in the sky, falling into the world, colorful and magnificent.
Zhu Yuanlong was stunned.
Stepping onto the stone bridge, water flows down the two sides of the bridge, which is extremely clear, but the middle part is not dripping. The sun shines on the bridge through the clouds, and refracts the water flow, thus forming a gorgeous rainbow.
The rainbow bridge is extremely high and long. When the three of them walked on it, they felt that the white clouds on both sides gradually sink to their feet, and they thought they would rise higher and higher. The strange sound in front of them was still coming.
After walking for a while, the white clouds gradually became thinner and walked out of the sea of clouds. The eyes suddenly lit up, and the sky was as blue as transparent as it was. The sky was wide and boundless; there was a vast sea of clouds below, which was gently floating and rising. At a glance, my heart suddenly became wider.
And directly in front is where the main hall of Qingyun Temple on the top of Tongtian Peak is located, "Taiqing Hall".
